Hello, my name is Aadit M Shah. I am an open-source developer from Mumbai, India. You might have come across my answers on Stack Overflow. I have been answering questions on Stack Overflow since 2011, and I'm in the top 0.26% of Stack Overflow users overall. I mostly answer questions related to JavaScript, functional programming, and Haskell.

I graduated with a Master of Science in Computer Science degree from Indiana University Bloomington in May 2017. My specialization was programming languages, type systems, and compilers. I returned to India in 2019, and worked at Hotstar as a front-end software developer for three years. Thus, I have both academic and industry experience.

During my career, I worked with TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Protocol Buffers. However, I felt that all these tools left a lot to be desired. For example, TypeScript is unsound, React is fauxtional, and Protocol Buffers are wrong. Coming from an academic background, I have a lot of ideas on how to build better tools for the community. Hence, in July 2022 I decided to quit my job and work as a full-time open-source developer.

  • I am passionate about compilers, type safety, and code correctness. I want to build the tools for a better tomorrow.
  • I believe in the free and open-source software community. I feel that it's my duty to give back to the community.
  • I love teaching and I will continue sharing my knowledge via long-form answers on StackOverflow and blog posts.

If you believe in my vision or if you found my answers on StackOverflow helpful then please consider sponsoring me. My goal is to improve the web development ecosystem, both by developing better tools for the community and by sharing my knowledge freely.

Although I believe in a classless, stateless, and moneyless society, yet the reality is that we live in a society where money matters. Hence, by sponsoring me you will be helping me fulfill my responsibility towards my wife and family, which will give me the freedom to continue working on my open-source projects.
